Once again this year,
FCC joins
the European Mobility Week
In keeping with its commitment to sus-
tainability and to improving the quality of
cities, and with the Strategic Road Safety
Plan, FCC, through the FCC Medio Am-
biente Levante II Branch Office, have joi-
ned the EDWARD project which aims to
reduce the number of road traffic acci-
dents in European cities as part of the ac-
tions carried out in cities during European
Mobility Week, celebrated each year from
16 to 22 September.
Promoted by the European Traffic Police
Network (TISPOL), the aim of the ED-
WARD Project is to have the 21st of Sep-
tember as the European Day without any
mortal road accidents. Different types of
material were distributed to create aware-
ness on the initiative.
The Levante II branch of FCC Medio Am-
biente translated and distributed the poster
describing the commitment to join the ED-
WARD project as part of the actions to pro-
mote Road Safety.

This project, jointly with the European Day
Without a Road Death (EDWARD) celebra-
ted on 21 September and for which cities
such as Madrid and Barcelona organised
special activities, are some of the activities
of the European Mobility Week (EMW) which
this year has the slogan, “Smart Mobility.
Strong Economy”. The objective of this edi-
tion is to promote the positive impact that
smart mobility can have on the economy.
The actions carried out over the past few
years as part of the European Mobility Week
have resulted in a greater number of cou-
ntries and cities joining the project, organi-
zing activities and implementing initiatives
to create awareness among citizens on the
importance of achieving a more sustainable
transport. Spain, with 424 cities joining this
edition is, jointly with Austria, one of the cou-
ntries with the greatest participation.
The VW Up of the All-gas project
is the protagonist of the
Mobility Week in Jerez
FCC Aqualia took part in the 5th edition of the Sustainable
Mobility Fair in Jerez. All-gas was the Company’s wager
for participating in this event where citizens discovered the
challenges posed by this revolutionary project which aims
to obtain biogas from the cultivation of microalgae fed with
wastewater.
Researchers Raúl Cano and Esteban Serrano were the
representatives of FCC Aqualia at the fair where the Vo-
lkswagen Up - which is being used for testing the biofuel
currently being produced at the project facilities - was dis-
played. The Councillor for Sustainability, Participation and
Mobility of Jerez City Council, José Antonio Días, visited
the Company’s information stand and
his opinion was very positive with re-
gards to FCC Aqualia’s commitment to
developing R+D projects to obtain al-
ternative sources of clean energy.
Jerez City Council planned several ini-
tiatives for celebrating Mobility Week
and for creating awareness on this is-
sue. FCC Aqualia’s collaboration in this
event is in keeping with its strategy of
contributing as much value as possible,
more than just its day-to-day technical
management, in the territories where it
operates.
